The vendor has provided the following:
Only 1 previous owner (before me). I have owned and V8 engine installed at 3528cc
The car was driven 135 miles to the auction
I have owned and loved this car for 26 years. I fitted a Rover 3.5 V8 engine in 2018...Soley because I love the sound of a V8!
Featured in Practical Classics Magazine September 2021.
The car is a lazy cruiser that makes a nice noise.
This is a unique vehicle...one of one! The only car with a Rover V8 engine coupled to a AW71 automatic gearbox. I wanted to keep the original gearbox as it is fitted with an internal overdrive for relaxed cruising. The conversation was complex, but worth it.
The paint defects on the N/S/F wing and side doors is down to me making a pigs ear out of rectifying crazed lacquer. It was on my list to have these panels resprayed. The car deserves it.
These evergreen wardrobe-shifters are going up in value now.
Selling for health reasons.
I hope someone else will love this car as much as I have.
